Do you think a boy child gets more affected than a girl child if the parents get divorced?

girls are said to adapt more easily when their parents agrees on a divorce, but a boy child could get hurt too badly. Do you agree?

    Both children get hurt. Parents who split their families/homes up are selfish. Shame on them! They hurt their children more than they will ever know.

    Parents are suppose to protect their children from harm but instead bring more pain and anguish to their children than anyone else. sigh...

    I can hear some of you right now saying, "Don't judge me, you don't know what I went through." My response is, do you know what your kids went through in private?

    I disagree. Boys and girls both experience pain from divorce in their own ways, it affects both sexes for the rest of their lives. I have 2 brothers and a sister, and none of us are any better off than the other.

    i disagree i dont think it has anything to with gender, i think it has everything to do with how the divorce is handled by the parents where the child is concerned, i think it depends on both parents making the child feel secure.. because the biggest problem with kids from broken relationships is feeling abandoned , confused, and afraid .. if both parents re-enforce their love with the child, can act mature and civil infront of the child, reassure the child that everything will be ok, the child will handle it better then having to see one parent crying, or arguing, or having to move, or losing a parent in the process, becoming a pawn in the situation, feeling the need to pick and chose between parents, feeling they have to becareful of what they do or what they say for fear of making one or both of the parents mad, feeling abandoned by not seeing or hearing from one of their parents, feeling helpless, confused, scared , unstable.. etc..

    Its not the gender of a child, its not even the child himself or herself that determines how they handle it.. its all about the parents and how their child precieves them and how they are handling it with each other and with the child that dictates the stability of how the child handles the divorce...

    i think of this may well be a splash on the threshold of be jointly. I haven't any subject relationship cousins yet something closer grosses me out a splash.. Your husband would not sound like a solid guy so don't be with him, to your income. It relies upon too if the niece is on your area or his, if his then this may well be a splash disgusting for my section, yet of on your area then it quite is not incest via definition.

    I don't really buy into that argument. I think it is more likely that both genders are equally affected by divorce.
